Workshop Background and Goal

In recent years, the increasing demand in effective solutions for knowledge-intensive processes has been reflected in the arising of various approaches (such as
declarative and object-centric processes, artifact-centric systems, and adaptive case management) that emphasize how the integration of rules, data, control
flow and user decisions may support the specification, analysis and enactment of flexible, knowledge-intensive business processes. From the foundational and practical viewpoint,
the purpose of integrating such aspects with traditional business process management is a challenging, still largely open issue, which
requires to reconsider the role of each process component together with the ways it interacts with the other components, and ultimately
to reshape the entire process life-cycle.

The main focus of this workshop is to discuss novel and ongoing approaches, techniques and tools whose distinctive feature relies in the interplay between data,
users and control flow aspects, to the aim of defining and understanding the knowledge dimension for business processes.
